In this empowering episode, we dive into the mindset shift that transformed one woman’s journey from high-performing athlete to mindful midlife wellness coach. As a former competitive gymnast, bodybuilder, and CrossFit athlete, our guest was no stranger to intensity, discipline, and the relentless pursuit of perfection. But when menopause hit, the “push harder, do more” mentality began to backfire—leading to burnout, injuries, and disordered eating patterns. 

That breaking point became a breakthrough. 

Tune in as she shares how she rewrote the script on health in midlife by letting go of the all-or-nothing mindset and embracing a more sustainable, balanced approach. You’ll learn why working smarter, not harder, is the key to thriving during menopause and beyond. 

What you’ll learn in this episode: 

  • Why traditional fitness and nutrition approaches often fail in midlife
  • The power of small, consistent actions over perfection
  • Simple, sustainable shifts you can make right now—like prioritizing protein and fiber, strength training just 3x a week, and managing stress and sleep
  • How to show up for yourself in a way that feels empowering, not exhausting


If you’re tired of doing everything “right” and still not seeing results—or if you’re craving a more compassionate, aligned way to care for your body—this episode will speak directly to you.
